The San Francisco 49ers expect to have starting right tackle Mike McGlinchey and fullback Kyle Juszczyk back in the lineup for tonight's game against the Seattle Seahawks. It sounds like both of those players assume that to be the case, according to their social media posts today.
McGlinchey is "back at it," he says, and Juszczyk is "back at work."
That's a significant boost for the undefeated 49ers, who are headed into a crucial division matchup and will likely be without Pro Bowl tight end George Kittle.
McGlinchey, a second-year starter, has missed time since suffering a knee injury during Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns. He was listed as "questionable" to play against the Seahawks.
McGlinchey started each game of his NFL career before that Week-5 injury.
Juszczyk started practicing last week after suffering an MCL sprain during Week 5. He too was listed as "questionable" entering tonight's game.
Juszczyk, a seven-year veteran, entered the league as a fourth-round draft pick by the Baltimore Ravens in 2013 and joined San Francisco in 2017. He has carried the football one time for six yards while adding six receptions for 76 yards through four starts this season, and his blocking ability is an important part of the team's run game.

The San Francisco 49ers selected wide receiver Jacob Cowing in the fourth round of the draft, adding him to a wideout group that includes Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings, and first-round pick Ricky Pearsall.
Following his selection, Cowing spoke with reporters and revealed his admiration for a receiver within the division—Seattle Seahawks veteran Tyler Lockett—whom he's modeled his game after.
"As I was growing up on my football journey, I looked at Tyler Lockett a lot," Cowing told reporters via Zoom. "Very similar in stature. I kind of resembled my game after him a
Do you want to see the 49ers play holiday games again?

Last season was frustrating for anyone covering the San Francisco 49ers, as it meant missing out on family activities due to the team playing games on Thanksgiving night and Christmas night. Although the Christmas night game was less burdensome because most family activities were done by then.
Additionally, the team played on New Year's Eve, although it was a morning game, making it less of an issue.
However, for fans, it must have been enjoyable to mix holiday activities, such as stuffing your face with turkey, with watching a 49ers game. The 2024 NFL schedule is expected to be released this week. While the date has yet to be officially announced, reports point to a potential
Is this the best wide receiver group Kyle Shanahan has had with the 49ers?

If you want wide receivers, the San Francisco 49ers have you covered. In addition to bringing back their top three receivers from 2023, Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, and Jauan Jennings, the 49ers are also bringing back Chris Conley, Danny Gray, Ronnie Bell, Trent Taylor, and others. And if that wasn't enough, they drafted Ricky Pearsall (Florida) and Jacob Cowing (Arizona) and signed undrafted rookie free agent, Terique Owens (Missouri State).
That's a solid receiving corp, led by two Pro Bowlers and a guy with a knack for picking up first downs. But where does this group rank among those Kyle Shanahan has had in San Francisco?
We can't compare this group to those from the 1980s and 1990s. That would be unfair. Any wide receiver group with Jerry Rice, the greatest

Rumors swirled around the statuses of San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel leading up to the 2024 NFL Draft. In the end, both players remained on the roster, and the speculation surrounding the two star players dwindled.
While the 49ers repeatedly insisted that signing Aiyuk to a long-term deal remained the priority, there were reports of trade talks involving him and Samuel. After San Francisco drafted wide receiver Ricky Pearsall with the No. 31 overall pick, the Aiyuk trade rumors cooled off, and the Samuel ones heated up.
